Styling XP

Styling XP

Open Registry by going to Start then Run, entering regedit and Navigate to

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]. In right pane, look for key by the name "LogonPrompt". Set its value to whatever text you want to see displayed at login screen.

You can also download Xp Styler which is a part of Tune Up Utilities 2008 . It allows you to change your logon and boot screen.Many other softwares also do this, but their main work is to modify the file 'logonui.exe'

To get a look of Windows Vista, You can download Windows Vista Transformation Pack . Its a nice thing and is a freeware.

Many people put themes and change their boot and logon screen but this consumes ram.So, I recommend people to use classic theme which does not consumes a lot of ram and do not change their boot and logon screen.If you have 1 GB or above ram then you can use themes and all that because then it will not matter a lot.
